Default AP2 vs. 2003 GT

I was on my way home from a friends house and I hear a loud rumble from behind while I wait at the light. As I glance over into the rear window I notice a red stang with Cobra rims so I throw a couple of revs over and he does the same. I hold the revs at 7,000RPM and wait for the light to turn green. When the light turns green, I dump the clutch and hear him roast his tires, with this said, I instantly pull 1.5 cars. The shift into second puts another .5 car length in between us and by the end of fourth I had 4 lengths on him.

There is no traffic infront and I slow down for a 10mph roll. He agrees and does the honking. I clutch in and wait for the honks to sound. On the second honk, I rev it all the way to 8,200RPM and dump it from there and I'm maybe a fender ahead. At the end, we're a little over 100MPH and I shut it down with a length and a half in between us.

"Mods":
Gutted Airbox.
Resonatorectomy.

Keep it safe,
-Danny

He most likely just cut out the divider plastics.

nice runs. Sometimes it'd be nice to drive a car that wouldn't turn tires to smoke just because you floored it off the line. Nah, that'd be

It's the stock airbox with the L-shaped guide and center divider taken out.
